A Bit About Me

-



Hi, my name is Jonathan, and today, I will share with you a little bit about me. I am part of the AICE students at my high school American Senior High School. I am currently attending the AICE Media Studies class in order to meet more of the requirements to get the Cambridge diploma and its benefits for my future. Such benefits will allow me to enroll in a college or university of my interest such as UF, which would allow me to pursue my professional interest to become a mechanical engineer or at the very least, develop my first years within their facilities. 


This might be a complete 180 degrees turn, but my hobby is that of photography. This is because of my passion and ambition to replicate, enhance, and showcase the beauty of anything that happens to capture my attention as the content of my picture above did. And so, because of this hobby of mine, and persecution of a better future, I am taking this class because I feel it can help me develop myself and hobby into a more 'marketable product' that more, and more people would get to appreciate and so my value as a useful individual for this society can be more recognized and noticeable.

  The Birth of a Photographer   “Photography is the encapsulation of the beauty within moments, feelings, or emotions… It is just like painting with light” That is the definition of the word Photography for the blooming entrepreneur Joel del Olmo. At his age of 17, he has already found his passion and guidance towards his future as his enjoyment lays on the ambition to become a professional, recognized photographer. Though his passion spurred almost instantaneously after getting introduced into this pixeled world, his mind created long-term projects, goals to accomplish, and tasks to fulfill. He understood that doing nothing would take him nowhere and so he began his journey. Step by step. It was just another day like any other in 2018 when del Olmo stopped to look at his surroundings. To realize the details that only got glimpses and were never something to be mesmerized from. What he saw was; Beauty. Stories. Emotions… Art. “It was just there, waiting for me to see it and I was

                          In this research on Magazine Demographic it was found that 78% of readers are Male and 22% of the readers are Females. This information will be valuable with developing my magazine. Although this information is from 2008 so this could change. MarketingCharts’ own  US Media Audience Demographics  study demonstrates a similar trend. During Spring 2017, 56.1% of adults surveyed said they had read a print edition of a magazine in the previous week, down from 61.7% saying so a couple of years earlier. The report reveals strong discrepancies in print magazine readership by age, with adults ages 65 and older about twice as likely as those ages 18-24 to report having read a print magazine in the past week (73% and 36%, respectively). The print magazine audience tends to be skewing older over time, too. The report’s 2017 data showed that 44.7% of US monthly magazine readers were aged 55 and older, compared to 41.2% in 2015. By comparison, just 29.9% of online adults wh
